¨Por supuesto que para trabajar en un film de estas características, no es necesario creer en zombies, simplemente uno se dice: ¨hay que hacerlo y punto ¨, y se lo debe tomar en serio ¨. André Morell ( Londres, Inglaterra, 20 de agosto de 1909, Londres, 28 de noviembre de 1978 ). Esta frase inteligente pertenece a un actor que ha estado vinculado a la productora Hammer en varios de sus films tales como:She, 1965, dirigida por Robert Day;The Mummy´s Shroud, 1967, dirigida por John Gilling;The Vengeance of She,1968, dirigida por Cliff Owen. Aqui se puede volver a ver a Morell en una pelicula que logra sumir al espectador en el suspenso, en el misterio y en el mas profundo terror, todo esto gracias a la experta mano del director John Gilling ( Londres, Inglaterra, 29 de mayo de 1912 - Madrid, España, 22 de noviembre de 1984 ), quién dirigió películas tales como: The Challenge, 1948; The Quiet Woman, 1951;The Frightened Man, 1952; Double Exposure, 1954; The Gamma People, 1956; The Flesh and the Fiends, 1960; Shadow of the Cat, 1961; The Night Caller, 1965; The Reptile, 1966; The Mummy`s Shroud, 1967.
En un pueblo ingles están sucediendo extrañas muertes sin causa aparente y el medico no puede encontrar la cura, es por eso que recurre, como última alternativa a su mentor, quién vendrá a darle una mano, y así sera como ambos se llevaran una desagradable sorpresa.
Como siempre, el nombre de la productora Hammer es sinónimo de excelencia en materia de cine fantástico, y esta película no es la excepción; Gilling logra darle al film un aire de extrañeza, irrealidad, donde todo es sugerido y nada es mostrado, salvo al final, dejando entrever la sensación en el espectador, por momentos, de que el pueblo esta algo enfermo y que necesita de una cura lo mas pronto posible, lastima que dicha cura no llega, y el doctor no puede encontrarla y se siente mal al respecto, como lo demuestra
muy bien la escena de la conversación entre el pueblerino y el doctor; sin embargo, aparte de esa escena, La Plaga de los Zombies contiene otros momentos igual de buenos, la escena pesadillesca de los muertos levantandose de sus tumbas ha sido muchas veces imitada, pero nunca mejorada o sobrepasada. Por primera vez en una pelicula, los zombies realmente parecen cadaveres podridos que se leventan de la tierra; Roy Ashton, el artista detras de los efectos especiales de la Hammer, diseño el aspecto de las quince criaturas, pintando el rostro de los extras con pintura de latex gris y rociandola luego con un fino polvo verde para resaltar el aspecto demacrado y mortuorio; otros momentos para nombrar son, por ejemplo, la llegada al pueblo de Sir James Forbes, interpretado por André Morell, y su hija Sylvia Forbes, interpretada por la actriz Diana Clare ( Londres, Inglaterra, 1938 ), en dicha escena, lo que parece ser una caceria de la zorra, termina convirtiendose en un verdadero desastre, cuando los cazadores entusiasmados en dar caza al animal, pasan al lado de unos deudos, a los cuales les tiran el ataud al suelo, quedando el muerto fuera del mismo por culpa de uno de los cazadores, y para colmo no dan disculpas a las victimas de tal atropello.
Por el lado de la musica, la cual, por cierto, es muy buena, James Bernard ( India, 20 de septiembre de 1925 - Londres, Inglaterra, 12 de julio de 2001 ), se encargo de escribir la partitura, combinando ritmos caribeños en conjunto con unos tenebrosos violines. Bernard tambien realizo las siguientes partituras:
